Hadrat Abu Bakr (R.A)
Hadrat Abu Bakr (R.A) is
reported to have come out to address Muslim community after departing of our
beloved Prophet [S.A.W.S] and gave his famous speech which included-
‘To proceed, if anyone
amongst you used to Worship Prophet Muhammad [S.A.W.S], then let them know that
Muhammad [S.A.W.S] is dead, but if you used to Worship ALLAH [S.W.T], then know
that ALLAH [S.W.T] is Alive and shall never die.’
Hadrat Abu Bakr [R.A] then
recited these verses from the Qur'an:
"Muhammad is not but a Messenger. [Other] Messengers have passed on before
him. So if he was to die or be killed, would you turn back on your heels [to
unbelief]? And he who turns back on his heels will never harm ALLAH at all; but
ALLAH will reward the grateful."
In the office of Caliphate
Hadrat Abu Bakr (R.A) first addressed the people as-
‘I have been given the
authority over you, and I am not the best of you. If I do well, help me; and if
I do wrong, set me right. Sincere regard for truth is loyalty and disregard for
truth is treachery. The weak amongst you shall be strong with me until I have
secured his rights, Insha'ALLAH, and the strong amongst you shall be weak with
me until I have wrested from him the rights of others, Insha'ALLAH. Obey me as
long as I obey ALLAH [S.W.T] and HIS Messenger [S.A.W.S]. But if I disobey
ALLAH [S.W.T] and HIS Messenger [S.A.W.S], ye owe me no obedience. Arise for
your prayer, ALLAH [S.W.T] have mercy upon you.’
Hadrat Umar (R.A)
There could be no better
definition of the democracy and justice, then the historic words of Hadrat Umar
(R.A), over which he laid foundation of his rule. On Friday prayers Hadrat Umar
(R.A) addressed the people as follow-
‘Brethren (Brothers), it has
come to my notice that the people are afraid of me… They say that he (Umar) has
become the Caliph now; ALLAH [S.W.T] knows how hard he will be. Whoever has
said this is not wrong in his assessment… know ye brethren that you will feel a
change in me. For those who practice tyranny and deprive others of their
rights, I will be harsh and stern, but for those who follow the law, I will be
most soft and tender. I will be harsh and stern against the aggressor, but I
will be a pillar of strength for the weak.
I will not calm down until I
will put one cheek of a tyrant on the ground and the other under my feet, and
for the poor and weak, I will put my cheek on the ground.
By ALLAH [S.W.T], he that is
weakest among you shall be in my eye the strongest, until I have vindicated for
him his rights; he that is strongest I will treat as the weakest, until he
complies with the law.’
Hadrat Ali (R.A)
Hadrat Ali (R.A)’s policies
and ideas of governing is his instruction to Governor-
‘Infuse your heart with
mercy, love and kindness for your subjects. Be not in face of them a voracious
animal, counting them as easy prey, for they are two kinds: either they are
your brother in religion or your equals in creation. Error catches them
unaware, deficiencies overcome them, (evil deeds) are committed by them
intentionally and by mistake. So grant them your pardon and your forgiveness to
the same extent that you hope ALLAH [S.W.T] will grant you HIS pardon and HIS
forgiveness. For you are above them, and he who appointed you is above you, and
ALLAH [S.W.T] is above him who appointed you. ALLAH [S.W.T] has sought from you
the fulfillment of their requirements and HE is trying you with them.’

2. Who loves a person and he
loves him Only for ALLAH [S.W.T]'s Sake.

ignorance and in evil and ALLAH [S.W.T] has bestowed upon us the present good;
will there by any evil after this good?" He said, "Yes." I
asked, "Will there be good after that evil?" He said, "Yes, but
it would be tained with Dakhan (i.e. little evil)." I asked, "What
will its Dakhan be?" He said, "There will be some people who will
lead (people) according to principles other than my tradition. You will see
their actions and disapprove of them." I said, "Will there by any
evil after that good?" He said, "Yes, there will be some people who
will invite others to the doors of Hell, and whoever accepts their invitation
to it will be thrown in it (by them)." I said, "O ALLAH [S.W.T]'s
Apostle [S.A.W.S]! Describe those people to us." He said, "They will
belong to us and speak our language" I asked, "What do you order me
to do if such a thing should take place in my life?" He said, "Adhere
to the group of Muslims and their Chief." I asked, "If there is
neither a group (of Muslims) nor a chief (what shall I do)?" He said,
"Keep away from all those different sects, even if you had to bite (i.e.
eat) the root of a tree, till you meet ALLAH [S.W.T] while you are still in
that state."

the people saying, "ALLAH [S.W.T] has given option to a slave to choose
this world or what is with HIM. The slave has chosen what is with ALLAH
[S.W.T]." Abu Bakr (R.A) wept, and we were astonished at his weeping
caused by what the Prophet [S.A.W.S] mentioned as to a Slave (of ALLAH [S.W.T])
who had been offered a choice, (we learned later on) that ALLAH [S.W.T]'s
Apostle [S.A.W.S] himself was the person who was given the choice, and that Abu
Bakr (R.A) knew best of all of us. ALLAH [S.W.T]'s Apostle [S.A.W.S] added,
"The person who has favored me most of all both with his company and
wealth, is Abu Bakr (R.A). If I were to take a Khalil (i.e. friend) other than
my LORD, I would have taken Abu Bakr (R.A) as such, but (what relates us) is
the Islamic brotherhood and friendliness. All the gates of the Mosque should be
closed except the gate of Abu Bakr (R.A)."

While I was standing amongst the people who
were invoking ALLAH [S.W.T] for 'Umar bin Al-Khattab (R.A) who was lying (dead)
on his bed, a man behind me rested his elbows on my shoulder and said, "(O
'Umar (R.A)!) May ALLAH [S.W.T] bestow HIS Mercy on you. I always hoped that
ALLAH [S.W.T] will keep you with your two Companions (R.A), for I often heard
ALLAH [S.W.T]'s Apostle [S.A.W.S] saying, "I, Abu Bakr and 'Umar (R.A)
were (somewhere). I, Abu Bakr and 'Umar (R.A) did (something). I, Abu Bakr and
'Umar (R.A) set out.' So I hoped that ALLAH [S.W.T] will keep you with both of
them." I turned back to see that the speaker was Ali bin Abi Talib (R.A).

women were sitting with him, talking to him and asking him for more expenses,
raising their voices above the voice of ALLAH [S.W.T]'s Apostle [S.A.W.S]. When
'Umar (R.A) asked for the permission to enter, the women quickly put on their
veils. ALLAH [S.W.T]'s Apostle [S.A.W.S] allowed him to enter and 'Umar (R.A)
came in while ALLAH [S.W.T]'s Apostle [S.A.W.S] was smiling, 'Umar (R.A) said
"O ALLAH [S.W.T]'s Apostle [S.A.W.S]! May ALLAH [S.W.T] always keep you
smiling." The Prophet [S.A.W.S] said, "These women who have been
here, roused my wonder, for as soon as they heard your voice, they quickly put
on their veils. 'Umar (R.A) said, "O ALLAH [S.W.T]'s Apostle [S.A.W.S]!
You have more right to be feared by them than I." Then 'Umar (R.A)
addressed the women saying, "O enemies of yourselves! You fear me more
than you do ALLAH [S.W.T]'s Apostle [S.A.W.S]?" They said, "Yes, for
you are harsher and sterner than ALLAH [S.W.T]'s Apostle [S.A.W.S]." Then
ALLAH [S.W.T]'s Apostle [S.A.W.S] said, "O Ibn Al-Khattab (R.A)! By HIM in
WHOSE Hands my life is! Never does satan find you going on a way, but he takes
another way other than yours."
Sahih Bukhari: Volume 5,
Book 57: Companions (R.A) of The Prophet [S.A.W.S], Number 37:
Narrated Anas (R.A):
A man asked The Prophet [S.A.W.S] about the
Hour (i.e. Day of Judgment) saying, "When will the Hour be?" The
Prophet [S.A.W.S] said, "What have you prepared for it?" The man
said, "Nothing, except that I love ALLAH [S.W.T] and HIS Apostle
[S.A.W.S]." The Prophet [S.A.W.S] said, "You will be with those whom
you love." We had never been so glad as we were on hearing that saying of
the Prophet [S.A.W.S] (i.e. "You will be with those whom you love.")
Therefore, I love the Prophet [S.A.W.S], Abu Bakr and 'Umar (R.A), and I hope
that I will be with them because of my love for them though my deeds are not
similar to theirs.

that he will enter Paradise." I opened (the gate) for him, and behold! It
was Abu Bakr (R.A). I informed him of the glad tidings the Prophet [S.A.W.S]
had said, and he Praised ALLAH [S.W.T]. Then another man came and asked me to
open the gate. The Prophet [S.A.W.S] said to me "Open (the gate) and give
him the glad tidings of entering Paradise." I opened (the gate) for him,
and behold! It was 'Umar (R.A). I informed him of what the Prophet [S.A.W.S]
had said, and he Praised ALLAH [S.W.T]. Then another man came and asked me to
open the gate. The Prophet [S.A.W.S] said to me. “Open (the gate) for him and
inform him of the glad tidings, of entering Paradise with a calamity which will
befall him.” Behold! It was 'Uthman (R.A), I informed him of what ALLAH
[S.W.T]'s Apostle [S.A.W.S] had said. He Praised ALLAH [S.W.T] and said,
"I seek ALLAH [S.W.T]'s Aid."

Ali (R.A) happened to stay behind the Prophet
[S.A.W.S] and (did not join him) during the battle of Khaibar for he was having

Apostle [S.A.W.S]?" So 'Ali (R.A) set out following the Prophet [S.A.W.S],

(the Muslims) to conquer it, ALLAH [S.W.T]'s Apostle [S.A.W.S] said, "I
will give the flag (to a man), or tomorrow a man whom ALLAH [S.W.T] and HIS Apostle
[S.A.W.S] love will take the flag," or said, "A man who loves ALLAH
[S.W.T] and HIS Apostle [S.A.W.S]; and ALLAH [S.W.T] will grant victory under
his leadership." Suddenly came 'Ali (R.A) whom we did not expect. The
people said, "This is 'Ali (R.A)." ALLAH [S.W.T]'s Apostle [S.A.W.S]
gave him the flag and ALLAH [S.W.T] granted victory under his leadership.

[S.A.W.S] came, 'Aisha (R.A) informed him about Fatima (R.A)'s visit. Ali (R.A)
added "So the Prophet [S.A.W.S] came to us, while we had gone to our bed I
wanted to get up but the Prophet [S.A.W.S] said, "Remain at your
place". Then he sat down between us till I found the coolness of his feet
on my chest. Then he said, "Shall I teach you a thing which is better than
what you have asked me? When you go to bed, say, 'ALLAHU Akbar' thirty-four
times, and 'Subhan'ALLAH thirty-three times, and 'Alhamdu-lillah thirty-three
times for that is better for you both than a servant."

[S.A.W.S] spoke to me in secret and informed me that he would die in the course

and informed me that I would be the first of his family to follow him (after

walking with a necklace (of beads) around his neck. The Prophet [S.A.W.S]
stretched his hand out like this, and Al-Hasan (R.A) did the same. The Prophet
[S.A.W.S] embraced him and said, "O ALLAH [S.W.T]! I love him, so please

Narrated Abu Huraira (R.A):
ALLAH [S.W.T]'s Apostle [S.A.W.S] said,
"The Hour will not be established
(1) Till two big groups
fight each other whereupon there will be a great number of casualties on both
sides and they will be following one and the same religious doctrine,
(2) Till about thirty dajjals
(liars) appear, and each one of them will claim that he is ALLAH [S.W.T]'s
Apostle,
(3) Till the religious
knowledge is taken away (by the death of Religious scholars)
(4) Earthquakes will
increase in number
(5) Time will pass quickly,
(6) Afflictions will appear,
(7) Al-Harj, (i.e. killing)
will increase,
(8) Till wealth will be in
abundance ---- so abundant that a wealthy person will worry lest nobody should
accept his Zakat (i.e. charity), and whenever he will present it to someone,
that person (to whom it will be offered) will say, 'I am not in need of it,
(9) Till the people compete
with one another in constructing high buildings,
(10) Till a man when passing
by a grave of someone will say, 'Would that I were in his place
(11) And till the sun rises
from the West. So when the sun will rise and the people will see it (rising
from the West) they will all believe (embrace Islam) but that will be the time
when: (As ALLAH [S.W.T] said,) 'No good will it do to a soul to believe then,
if it believed not before, nor earned good (by deeds of righteousness) through
its Faith.' (6.158) And the Hour will be established while two men spreading a
garment in front of them but they will not be able to sell it, nor fold it up;
and the Hour will be established when a man has milked his she-camel and has
taken away the milk but he will not be able to drink it; and the Hour will be
established before a man repairing a tank (for his livestock) is able to water
(his animals) in it; and the Hour will be established when a person has raised
a morsel (of food) to his mouth but will not be able to eat it."

The Prophet [S.A.W.S] said, "Ad-dajjal
will come to Medina and find the Angels guarding it. So ALLAH [S.W.T] willing,
neither Ad-dajjal, nor plague will be able to come near it."
Sahih Bukhari: Volume 9,
Book 89: Judgments (Ahkaam), Number 255:
Narrated 'Abdullah (R.A):
ALLAH [S.W.T]'s Apostle [S.A.W.S] said,
"Do not wish to be like anyone, except in two cases:
(1) A man whom ALLAH [S.W.T]
has given wealth and he spends it righteously.
(2) A man whom ALLAH [S.W.T]
has given wisdom (knowledge of the Qur’an and the Hadith) and he acts according
to it and teaches it to others."
Sahih Bukhari: Volume 9,
Book 91: Accepting Information Given by a Truthful Person, Number 363:
Narrated 'Ali (R.A):
The Prophet [S.A.W.S], sent an army and
appointed some man their commander. The man made a fire and then said (to the
soldiers), "Enter it." Some of them intended to enter it while some
others said, 'We have run away from it (i.e., embraced Islam to save ourselves
from the 'fire')." They mentioned that to the Prophet [S.A.W.S], and he
said about people who had intended to enter the fire. ''If they had entered it,
they would have remained in it till the Day of Resurrection.'' Then he said to
others, "No obedience for evil deeds, obedience is required only in what
is good."
Sahih Bukhari: Volume 9,
Book 92: Holding Fast to the Qur'an and Sunnah, Number 379:
Narrated Abu Huraira (R.A):
The Prophet [S.A.W.S] said, "There was no
Prophet among the Prophets (P.B.U.T) but was given miracles because of which
people had security or had belief, but what I was given was the Divine
Inspiration (i.e. The Qur'an) which ALLAH [S.W.T] revealed to me. So I hope
that my followers will be more than those of any other Prophet (P.B.U.T) on the
Day of Resurrection."
Sahih Bukhari:
Volume 9, Book 93: ONENESS, UNIQUENESS OF ALLAH (TAWHEED), Number 624:
Narrated Ibn 'Umar (R.A):
ALLAH [S.W.T]'s Apostle [S.A.W.S] said,
"Your stay (in this world) in comparison to the stay of the nations
preceding you, is like the period between 'Asr prayer and the sun set (in
comparison to a whole day). The people of the Torah were given the Torah and
they acted on it till midday and then they were unable to carry on. And they
were given (a reward equal to) one Qirat each. Then the people of the Gospel
were given the Gospel and they acted on it till 'Asr Prayer and then they were
unable to carry on, so they were given a reward equal to) one Qirat each. Then
you were given the Qur'an and you acted on it till sunset, therefore you were
given (a reward equal to) two Qirats each. On that, the people of the
Scriptures said, 'These people (Muslims) did less work than we but they took a
bigger reward.' ALLAH [S.W.T] said (to them). 'Have I done any oppression to
you as regards your rights?' They said, "No." Then ALLAH [S.W.T]
said, 'That is MY Blessing which I grant to whomsoever I Will.'"
"Our LORD, Forgive us and our brothers who preceded us
in faith and put not in our hearts [any] resentment toward those who have
believed. Our LORD, indeed YOU are KIND and MERCIFUL."
